Blu-Ray Review: Peter Weir Presents Human Fortitude of ‘The Way Back’
Submitted by BrianTT on May 3, 2011 - 3:08pmCHICAGO – “Nature is your jailer, and she is without mercy.” So says the guard at the Siberian prison that houses the leads in Peter Weir’s harrowing true story of escape, pain, and survival, “The Way Back.” It’s so desolate, freezing, and dangerous in the wilds of Siberia, that prisons barely need walls or guards. Where would people go? A group of seven men were willing to find out and their story has been documented in “The Way Back,” recently released on Blu-ray and DVD.
DVD Review: Bumpy Ride to ‘Appaloosa’ is Worth the Trip
Submitted by BrianTT on January 9, 2009 - 2:32pmCHICAGO – I expect “Appaloosa” to be one of the more hard-to-get movies at your local video stores for the next few months. It’s the kind of movie - action-driven and widely missed in theaters - that does very well on the home market. Renters will find an old-fashioned Western that may not transcend its genre but will certainly provide more than enough entertainment on a snowy winter’s eve.
